I&#39;m happy to say that 5 and a half years after you wrote it, it remains an accurate account. I wasn&#39;t met at the door by an assistant - but as there was a sale on it was very busy and very crowded - but once I made it to the first floor above the ground floor an assistant attached himself to me. I was amused that that male sales staff would assist shoppers by getting down bolts of fabric and unrolling them for display, but it was then up to the female staff members to re-roll the fabric and re-stack it! I&#39;ve blogged about some of the fabric I bought here - http://madebybronwyn.blogspot.com.au/2017/02/a-new-year-new-dress.html<br />If fabric isn&#39;t the best souvenir of a holiday, I don&#39;t know what is! Anytime you are thinking of another trip there, let me know. Thanks so much for being the trailblazer.Bronwynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18397337190353402398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-74169631108403981.post-4007685245613263342015-09-15T11:49:31.730+08:002015-09-15T11:49:31.730+08:00Thanks Megan for the info.

Any leads to shops that specialize in silks? Are saris available?

Best shops or neighborhoods for gold and gemstone beads and jewelry findings?Kathy Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06089180385934060805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-74169631108403981.post-1294712898271081542013-09-22T11:42:14.774+08:002013-09-22T11:42:14.774+08:00fantastic thankyou we are off to Bali in 3 days an...fantastic thankyou we are off to Bali in 3 days and I cant wait to pick my own fabrics!!<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-74169631108403981.post-76110770917974018672013-09-15T12:22:21.590+08:002013-09-15T12:22:21.590+08:00Hi Megan... thanks for the great blog....

Maybe I just didn&#39;t see them. They have an incredible range of fabric so would hopefully have what you are after. The assistants are very helpful and will suggest alternatives if they don&#39;t have exactly what you are looking for. One assistant will stay with you all the time to help, which seemed strange to me, but they are so sweet, patient and helpful. I think taking samples is a great idea as I had trouble explaining exactly what I was looking for sometimes. Yes, the hotel was gorgeous, it was Dewani Villa Resort. Have a fantastic time :)Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00501701179886166733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-74169631108403981.post-85910956064411242372012-07-17T06:17:23.177+08:002012-07-17T06:17:23.177+08:00The hotel was Dewani Villa Resort in Kerobokan (ne...The hotel was Dewani Villa Resort in Kerobokan (near Seminyak). It was stunning and everything about our stay there was really lovely. The only small drawback for us was that is a little way out of Seminyak so we needed a driver or taxi to get to town. It was a nice drive though, with gorgeous wicker furniture shops to drool over on the way. There are lots of reviews of the hotel online.

We are currently in Bali and someone had told me about Alta Moda before we left but I left the details behind and couldn&#39;t remember the name or the location, only that is was several floors of fabric. You&#39;ve saved the day, and we will be visiting there today or tomorrow well prepared for the experience all because of your post.
